About homes and winters in area code 256
Area code 256/938 covers north Alabama, from Huntsville and Madison to Decatur, Florence, Gadsden and the Tennessee Valley towns between them. Census figures count about 693,000 homes and apartments here. About 43% were built before 1980 (4.5% before 1940), and the median home dates from the 1980s. About 72% are single-family detached houses.
Huntsville is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Alabama. The population was 215,006 at the 2020 census, making it the 100th-most populous city in the U.S., while the Huntsville metropolitan area has an estimated 542,000 residents and is the second-most populous metropolitan area in the state.
Winters bring a real heating season. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for Huntsville International Airport, AL show about 2,831 heating degree days a year, a January average of 42.7°F, and about 2.4 inches of snow. Rain and the occasional freeze still work on brick and mortar over the years, so a cracked crown or a missing cap is worth fixing early.
The most common way to heat a home here is electricity (about 70% of occupied homes, per the Census), followed by utility gas at about 21%. Wood is the main heat in fewer than 2 in 100 homes, so most fireplaces here are for cool evenings, and gas fireplaces and inserts are common. Energy codes place it in IECC climate zone 3A. NFPA 211, the national chimney and venting standard, recommends an inspection every year no matter what you burn.
